everything is organized by the italians”obviously the national stereotypes(模式化的思想)in this old joke are generalizations(普遍化), but such stereotypes are often said to “exist for a reason” is there actually a sliver(裂片)of truth in them? not likely, an international research team now says“national and cultural stereotypes do play an important role in how people see themselves and others, and being aware that these are not dependable is a useful thing,” said study author robert mccrae of the national institute on aging“these are in fact unfounded stereotypesthey dont come from looking around you,” mccrae saidif national stereotypes arent rooted in real experiences, then where do they come from? one possibility is that they reflect national values, which may become known from historical eventsfor example, many historians have argued that the spirit of american individualism(个人主义)has its origins in the experiences of the pioneers in the old westsocial scientists such as psychologist richard robins have given several other possible explanations for stereotypes and why they may be incorrectrobins notes that some stereotypes may have been correct at one point in history

beginners to memorize new words, and long lists of words seem to make the task impossible. they are puzzled why they try tomemorize words with great efforts but forget them easily. thats why there are often inquiries about how to memorize new words. 16 here are some tips to help. 17 we too often separate the process of new words memorization from pronunciation. in fact these two can be combined and each will enhance(提高) the other. saying the word to ourselves helps activate hearing memory, which helps the memory. 18 the more familiar we are with the word, the greater chance we will have to keep it for the rest of our life. never memorize single english words. 19 relate the word to terms we already know, either as synonym（同义词） or antonym（反义词）. for example, the word gargantuan is similar in meaning to words gigantic,”huge and large. make a order of words: small, medium, large, gigantic, and gargantuan.create a mental image of the word that involves strong emotions. think, the gargantuan whale is going to swallow me whole. learning english words requires action. complaining how difficult it is to memorize new words will be of little help. 20 have a try with ten words a day and you will see what a difference you will make in our english learning.a. so take action right now.b. speak the word while memorizing it.c. memorizing new words is very important.d. actually, some have given up learning new words.e. in fact, learning new words neednt be that difficult.f. make as many associations and connections as possible.g. the sound of word helps us recall the spelling and familiarizes us with the word.第二部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。give your shoes a shine，sir？at a street corner a woman was repeating
